Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 787 The Capitalist's Daughter vs. the Tough Guy Military Officer (19)

Yan Zheng pushed open the door and went in. He walked to the bedside and heard Shen Shuyi breathing softly as she slept.

He didn't look much, closed his eyes, lifted the blanket, took the ice pack, and left.

Originally, he thought that his marriage to Shen Shuyi was just a business collaboration.

He repaid his debt of gratitude, while she only wanted to escape the Shen family's prison.

He was still thinking that he could get a divorce when she found someone she liked.

But now, seeing her body stirred something within him.

Yan Zheng's mind was in turmoil; everything seemed to be heading in an irreversible direction.

……

Shen Shuyi felt that this injury was timely, so she didn't have to worry about getting along with her neighbors or entertaining visitors.

He only needed to quietly recover from his injury, which also provided an excuse not to make things difficult for Yan Zheng.

Although she was used to doing whatever she wanted, Yan Zheng was in officialdom and had to pay more or less attention to his lifestyle.

Many people were curious about what Commander Yan's girlfriend looked like. They waited and waited but no one came out. All they knew was that Yan Zheng would bring food from the cafeteria home for her every day.

In the army canteen, Wang Wen and Xiao Shu sat by the window eating.

Wang Wen looked at her and asked, "Xiao Shu, why have you been eating in the cafeteria these past few days? Aren't you eating with Comrade Li?"

Xiao Shu poked at the food. "Sister Wen, to be honest, I've suddenly noticed that Donghai has been acting a bit strange lately. He's always a little absent-minded when he's with me, and I don't know what he's thinking about."

"Especially in the last day or two."

Wang Wen didn't understand Li Donghai, and only said, "You two should settle down by now, lest you get seduced by some vixen."

"Hehe, that won't happen, I trust him!"

"He said he had some troubles at home, and that he'd be fine in a few days. By the way, Sister Wen, what's going on between you and Commander Yan?"

Last time, Wang Wen left looking lost and dejected, so she didn't ask too many questions.

Wang Wen was downcast and said with her eyes lowered, "Commander Yan is really getting married, and it seems that the person is his fiancée."

"No way?!" Xiao Shu exclaimed in shock. "That's a capitalist's daughter! Does Commander Yan have no future?!"

"In this sensitive period, I really don't believe that Commander Yan would bring a woman who lives in a villa and travels in a car to the island."

"Can someone like that live a peaceful life here?"

Wang Wen put down her chopsticks and nodded. "It seems that's the case. I've seen Commander Yan bring food back every day. It's obvious that the woman can't even cook."

The person they said couldn't even cook was eating the food Yan Zheng had brought back in the yard.

There was corn, rice, vegetables, fish, and shrimp; the portion was quite large.

Shen Shuyi served Yan Zheng a bowl of rice, saying, "Brother Yan, it's really kind of you to bring me food every day."

"Once my injury heals, I'll start cooking for myself."

"You said you don't know how, don't bother." Yan Zheng didn't find it troublesome.

“I can learn. Teach me whenever you have time.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Zheng's gaze fell on her slender, white fingers. "We'll talk about it later. Let's eat first."

"By the way, Shuyi, I need to go to the office in a bit. They said the marriage application has been officially approved and they want me to go and sign for it."

"Okay." Shen Shuyi picked up a piece of green vegetable. "Alright, then let's get our marriage certificate in a couple of days when I'm fully recovered."

Yan Zheng nodded. "Mm."

"Shuyi, someone from your family will come over in a few days to help renovate the bathroom. We'll build a separate toilet, and then we won't need a public toilet anymore."

"That's wonderful!" Shen Shuyi happily placed a large shrimp on Yan Zheng's plate. "Brother Yan, how can you be so kind?"

"Hey, don't be afraid in the future. I've cleared all the weeds around here, and the bathroom and toilet are covered tightly so no snakes can get in."

Yan Zheng knew she was afraid of snakes; she had been trembling in her sleep for the past few nights, and would instinctively snuggle into his arms when she fell asleep.
He had originally planned for the two of them to stay in separate rooms, but given the current situation, he couldn't bring himself to suggest it. After eating and washing the dishes, Yan Zheng went out to retrieve the marriage certificate. He still had to return to his unit, which would keep him busy until evening.

I knocked on the door of Director Liu's office and heard Director Liu's voice from inside.

"Please come in."

Director Liu, dressed in a green military uniform, sat at his desk and said to Yan Zheng, who walked in, "Commander Yan, please have a seat."

Yan Zheng sat down. "Director Liu, I'm here to pick up my marriage certificate."

"Look how anxious you are," Director Liu said with a smile. "So many people wanted to act as matchmakers for you before, but you refused them all. Now you're in such a hurry to get married."

Yan Zheng smiled, his tough face breaking into a smile at the teasing. "Director, how can I get a marriage certificate without a marriage report? I'm just following the procedure."

"I'll invite you to my wedding banquet then."

Director Liu took a sip of tea, put the teacup aside, and pondered, "You're also aware of Comrade Shen's family background, aren't you?"

"Mm." Yan Zheng nodded.

Director Liu said meaningfully, "If you get married to her, it will indeed have some impact on your career advancement."

"Have you thought this through too?"

Yan Zheng said firmly, "Director Liu, my marriage to Comrade Shen is a well-thought-out decision, and we will work together to make this new family a success."

Director Liu smiled and nodded, "Good, marriage is a lifelong commitment. I hope you will support each other and face any difficulties together in the future."

"Thank you, director."

"Okay, the organization has issued the marriage certificate. Take it back and get your marriage certificate as soon as possible."

Yan Zheng took the marriage certificate, stood up, saluted, and then left.

He felt the report was a bit too hot to handle and wanted to hand it over to Shen Shuyi as soon as possible. During the subsequent training camp, he seemed to have taken some kind of stimulant and was full of energy.

Shen Shuyi was alone in the yard, looking at the huge lawn and thinking about how to make use of it.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Is Commander Yan's wife home?"

Shen Shuyi opened the courtyard gate and saw two women standing in front of it, each carrying a bamboo basket.

"Hello, who are you?"

The woman in the lead was about thirty or forty years old, with a kind and honest face. "Hey, my name is Chen Lian, and I live at number 167. I'm your neighbor."

Another, younger woman smiled and said, "My name is Lin Chan. I also live nearby. We heard from Commander Yan that you fell and have been recuperating at home for the past few days, so we came to visit you."

"Yes, are you feeling better? These are vegetables we grew at home, so I brought some over for you to try."

"My wife and I are both under Commander Yan's command."

"Yes, we are all one family."

"So we're from the same group," Shen Shuyi said with a smile. "Thank you for your concern, I'm much better now."

"My name is Shen Shuyi. Hello, Sister Lian and Sister Chan."

Oh my, that sweet voice, that melodious and soft Mandarin, even women like Chen Lian and Lin Chan were delighted to hear it.

"Oh, alright, alright, Shuyi, where are you from?"

Shen Shuyi poured them a glass of water and brought them the fruit that Yan Zheng had washed before he left.

"I'm from Shanghai."

Chen Lian and Lin Chan both knew that Shanghai was a big city, but they didn't know exactly where it was, so they just chatted about everyday things.

"Shuyi, your injury hasn't fully healed yet, so please don't overdo it. Do you need our help?"
